"May I suggest a more integrated solution for removing posts, banning someone, and deleting the reports. The current set up has too many steps and takes too much time.  \nMy mods see the report - go the admin area and than have to click numerous buttons to go thru the entire process. Then they have to remember to go back and remove the reports. \nWhat we do now: \n1st part - ban member - with all features selected like IP, name move to banned user group etc. FYI having the link from the front page that give you info on the IP here would be very useful. \n2nd part - flag as spammer - click back out of last screen and then go into another menu and flag as spammer \n3rd part - remove posts - click back again and then go into the menu and remove the posts \n4th step - delete the report - THIS STEP EASY TO MISS as you have to go back to the forum and individually confirm the reports were about that person and then delete them. \n - this is bad as that means each mod then goes to to the job and finds some one else already has  \nI recommend:  \n1: have admin set up features that have default actions for what to do about spammers. These are not automatic just default preferences - For us it would be ban IP, ban name, move to deleted member group, flag member as spammer and delete their posts and topics.  \n2: report area - link to admin area for the person in question and have a 1 click \"process and spammer button\"  OR just have a \"process as spammer\" button that does the steps in 1 AND deletes the report!   \nAlso my members have commented that they noticed a glitch when reporting spam- you can't really tell when its reported easily. So they put a post in the thread that indicates it was reported. This post then has to be deleted. I suggest that a reported post changes format to something like an X thru the entire post and the word spam reported over top. This should be very obvious and will prevent numerous reports.   \nThanks for the consideration. "
